As the trade talks heat up surrounding San Francisco 49ers’ wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, the Pittsburgh Steelers are right in the mix as things have changed dramatically in the last 24 hours.
Following reports Monday night and early Tuesday morning that the Steelers were no longer a realistic option for Aiyuk in a trade, the two teams have reportedly re-engaged in trade talks with the Steelers being Aiyuk’s preferred destination.
Though the 49ers have reportedly had trades in place with the Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots before New England backed out of talks Tuesday night, no such trade has been reported to be in place for the Steelers at this time.
